A few hours later, Walker County sheriff's deputies arrested 22-year-old Christian Zamora, a Salvadoran national, and charged him with first-degree murder, the Police Reporter said. Zamora was booked into the Walker County Jail on $1 million bail, the publication said.

Guevara's body was discovered after sheriff's deputies received an anonymous tip from a pay phone about 11:20 a.m. Monday. Based upon the tip, deputies found the body on the north side of FM 2929, near the intersection with FM 2296, Four Notch Road.

From evidence recovered at the scene, deputies were able to identify a suspect vehicle, according to the Police Reporter.

Walker County Precinct 4 Justice of the Peace James Mature told the Police Reporter that Guevara was "mutilated," with cuts all over his body.
